Really if he or Senator Clinton get elected, we can't go wrong.

Normally, I wouldn't promote Senator McCain over a Democrat like Barack Obama but I'm only repeating what Clinton said earlier today. So clearly, it is ok. As far as I know.

1. She's gunna try to ingrain this "experience" BS into everyone in order to beat Obama
But if she goes against Mccain he's going to destroy her with it.

3. But by her logic, if McCain wins then we can't go wrong, especially given
he has the most experience.

All rejoice in a McCain Presidency!

13. By Clinton's logic, I would imagine with all his experience he will pick great Justices!

2. It is unfathomable that she would say this. Is she really this pathetically desperate?

10. She did NOT say McCain should be elected over Obama
I understand the point she was making, even though I really wish she had phrased it a different way, but she did not say either she or McCain should be elected over Senator Obama.

6. At 3 O'Clock in The Morning, Do You Really Want a Muslim in the White House?
Don't get me wrong, Bob Kerrey is excited about having someone named Barack Hussein Osama in the race, but are we really going to take him at his word that he wasn't trained in a radical madrassa?

Seriously, though, Jimi Hendrix was experienced, but that hardly qualifies him for the White House.

I was listening to her say that
You have taken it out of C..what she was saying is that she would be better at taking McCain on since she has the most experience, and she does no matter what any one says, it is time to stop bickering and get one of the two elected or be under republican rule for 8 more years.

14. He does. But he is a Republican with experience. Voters want a Democrat with experience
There was no implied endorsement of McCain. The partisan spin around here is absolutely dizzying.

You can say Clinton is misreading the mood of the public, saying voters will be wanting seasoned leadership, that's an opinion and we all have them. Ours can differ. Clinton's point is not one you agree with, but it is simple: Want to beat McCain? Run a Democrat who isn't seen to be a relative rookie.

The match up Clinton believes will work for Democrats in November is to run someone who, like McCain, has been involved with politics on the national level for more than just a small handful of years. THEN we will beat McCain on the issues. If we run someone very new to the national stage our candidate's lack of national and international experience will become the issue instead.

Like I said, I know you don't buy that argument. But it is total nonsense to twist it into the type of statement you made instead.
